I used one PIGS to make 2 neonatal quilts for donation to the quilt guild. The name of the charm packs I used is Monkey Wrench. The fabric has printed monkeys holding wrenches in their tails. The fabric designer is Tula Pink.
The pattern is simply sewing the charm squares together. I used a stripe print for the binding. I heard at a guild meeting that if you don’t have the perfect fabric for a binding use a striped print. “You can never go wrong with a stripe.” I think the advice was wrong.
